Reassuring feeling about alien - dream analysis

If you are awoken in the night by a strange noise any dreams you are having maybe be linked to questions such as "what is that noise?" and "is everything alright" and "do I sense danger?"

THE DREAM I see this body lying in bed and its eyes open. It looks like an alien. As I wake up I feel this reassuring feeling that its everything is OK.

THE REALITY The dreamer woke up from this dream and his next door neighbour was coughing very loudly. She suffers from some asthma related illness.

DREAM ANALYSIS Dreams will often be about issues in our emotional and day to day lives. But if something is actually happening at the time of the dream whilst we are sleeping then our dream tends to link to those events. So if there is some noise in the background that may be incorporated into the dream or even take the dream over. Whilst asleep we need to sense what is happening in order to detect danger. Anything might be happening and we maybe the victims of fire or burglary.

In this case the alien symbolises that some noise was coming from an alien source. That is using alien in the sense that it is outside. The dream also captures this sense that things are OK. The dreamers neighbour often had breathing difficulties and woke up coughing loudly. So maybe the dreamer was sensing that the noise came from next door and there was no immediate threat to his danger.
